Make Measurements

Start by measuring the amount of wall you want to cover with the tile. If the tiles need to be cut to fit the area, use a wet saw to trim the sheets of rock to fit perfectly flush against a vanity or other flat area.

Note: These rocks can be tricky to cut. Wear gloves and safety glasses during this step.

Pro Tip

Order tiles that have already been treated with a topcoat to save time and ensure your tiles will be protected.

Apply the Thinset

Apply a very thin layer of thinset to the wall with a grooved trowel. Apply one section at a time so that you can get the tiles up before the thinset dries.
